  1. Windows 10 version 1703 Defender


    Since the last update on 12 Apr 2017 (Creators update) I can't find out how to manually scan my computer with Defender. (interface has completely changed)
    The update went flawless and in the taskbar I can see the Defender icon.
    Opening that icon, Defender says that "my device is being protected".
    Is it still possible to scan my computer manually with Defender and how should I proceed?
    thank you, gabriël

    :)

  2. Windows Defender Security Center removes working HP Photosmart driver

    Assuming you upgraded to Windows 10 Version 1703 (Win10 1703; AKA Creators Update) less then ten (10) days ago, see if the behavior is resolved after rolling back to your previous Windows version (e.g., Win10 1607, OS Build 14393.x).

    COMMENT: If Norton Security v22.x (I assume) were installed & working properly,
    Windows Defender Antivirus (in Win10 1703) & Windows Defender (in Win10 1607) should be disabled.
    Windows Defender Security Center (in Win10 1703) is another story... [Yes, it's all very confusing! What were they thinking?]
